Hello everyone. I have a question about unlocking Xperia Neo V bootloader through Flashtool. I know there are other ways to do that but I just want to try by this method. Can it actually be unlocked??? It a 11w52 device and as I know you can unlock the bootloader with unofficial ways till 12w14. Thanks in advance.
Yes, Flashtool can do it easily.

I installed cm10 in my Sony Xperia Tipo, done everything correctly, but now I can't boot up my phone, and I can't go to fastboot mode to flash the default firmware. When I try to boot up, sometimes it does nothing, and sometimes it vibrates, but still nothing Any solutions?
Press volume down while plygging in the usb cable (green led)and restore stock firmware using flashtool.If you arent able to enter flash mode,i guess it's a hard brick

Hi there,
I'm not sure of unlocking the bootloader of my Tipo, cos the last time I installed a custom ROM (Paranoid), my mobile died and fortunately I've recoved it using Update Service.
Now I want to install JB (Pure CM+: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2284432) but I need some help and don't wanna lost the money!
Thanks in advance
to unlock bootloader you must downlad SE bootloader unlocker, install fastboot drivers from its folder, type your imei and press unlock bootloader....very simple

Unlocking bootloader is not dangerous, installing custom kernels might be.

your phone didn't die then, it dies when it won't even vibrate or charge, you just didn't know how to flash a ROM.
Thanks for reply, now I've installed CWM Recovery, then I've to unlock bootloader and then flash the zip file.
I used to have a lot of android mobiles... but no one was so "risky"
don't be afraid ! itssss goinggg to be great ! unlocked my miro today ! no issues !

For that you have to keep screen alive while the rooting process is going on! And also tick USB Debugging on!
Try again if you fail once or twice!
Best luck

Use UnlockRoot or SuperOneclick, then check with Root Checker app If it works please say thanks )
Doomlord kit must work, if it doesn't then you're doing something wrong. Did you install adb drivers? Did you allow usb debugging and unknown sources?

Done all that, DooMLord kit says 'Error file over flow'
Hmm, strange. Doomlord's tool should work, it has even been confirmed that your device, and firmware is supported! Perhaps http://cydiaimpactor.com or http://srsroot.com ?
You can try those two, it won't hurt your device if they fail.
Then make sure that only your device is connected to usb and try few times, because for me it usually takes two times for it to work.

Try UnlockRootPro it does root your device even when he bootloader is locked.. With ease! Make sure you've USB debugging enabled while you connect your phone to pc! It did work for me fine!! Try and post the result

i am a junior too. got my phone 2 months ago and i am not a developer, even though i have some IT expertise. up until now, i messed up the android on this phone probably 20 times and reinstalled it everytime in a couple of minutes. i have tested lots of roms and kernels, some of them several times over and my impression is it's difficult to really brick it. maybe not having a charged battery while flashing, but that never happened to me.
try installing clockwork mod recovery after rooting, because it's really useful. then use extensively the backup it provides, before flashing something.
otherwise, follow the forums. these guys know what they do.
Thnaks it really helped

Have a wonderfull life dude:good:
1 kind request....after u unlock the bootloader and flash custom kernal pls notice if ur Walkman app is shuttering when playing songs.........
....its lagging for me..... pls reply........tnks
As you might know, this device doesn't have CWM, only a bad stock recovery which is pretty much unusable and very limited, so my request to the developers is to port CWM for our device or TWRP. There is CWM out for other devices with this chipset, so it will be possible to create CWM for us also I think.
have you tried the CWM by superdragonpt? found here:

Like I said earlier, the chance of that this device has a unlocked bootloader is high as I have even managed to flash a corrupt recovery.
Just a thought. Has any one tried any type of bootstrap and/or boot hijack method of recovery? Something like safestrap, etc? I don't have the device, I was just doing some research for a friend that purchased one of these yesterday.
